• The City agrees that the Project will be exempt from any future development moratorium unless the moratorium is required solely to protect the public health and safety. • The City agrees that Kaiser has the right to vary the phasing of construction depending upon changes in the practice of health care. • The City agrees that Kaiser may use modular or temporary buildings for construction or temporary medical uses prior to completion of permanent structures on the site, subject to a standard site plan review. • City agrees to assist Kaiser in reserving capacity for sewer and water services as necessary to serve the Medical Center. • City agrees that Kaiser shall have the flexibility to vary the mix between hospital, medical office, retail and any other use, provided that Kaiser does not exceed the vehicle trip cap established by the Traffic Section of the EIR for Buildout conditions. • City and Kaiser recognize that additional project -level CEQA review will be required prior to approval of the retail portion of the Project, consistent with State laws and regulations. A proposal for retail development will need to fulfill all CEQA requirements and receive City Council approval prior to the initiation of construction. • City agrees to maintain a development team with one identified team leader empowered to coordinate the City's various departments in their interaction with Kaiser, and to efficiently prioritize and allocate staff time, resources and cooperation and coordination with ACCMA and Caltrans to avoid undue delay. Staff Analysis Staff supports the terms of the Development Agreement and believes that the DA provides certainty that: 1) development of the Project will promote the orderly planning of public improvements and services, 2) costs are allocated to achieve maximum utilization of public and private resources in the development process, and 3) appropriate measures to enhance and protect the environment are achieved.
